Some scum-sucking, pathetic, attention-starved poser caused a recent commotion on the venerable Jalopnik.com car blog. You can read the post here. There were over 35 responses to the post! Think how many man-hours those people could have applied to discussing topics related to real cars!
Apparently this loser thinks that by replacing the middle "2" on his weak, little 2004 525i he can fool good, honest BMW enthusiasts into believing they're seeing a pre-production 555i. Well, let me tell you, this guy is full of BAT-SQUEEZE! (I'll bet he thinks he's reeeeal freakin' funny.)

There is nothing weak or little about a 525. I'd put my slip up for a 10 mile race against any of the bigger engines any day.

Over a distance of 10 miles, I would even race a 555......
I'm guessing you mean you would race an M5 10 miles as long as the M5 only had 1/2 a GALLON of gas in their car...

It would have to be a highway race with real life traffic. Show me what you can do with your car in real life. Any idiot can go really fast on a track.....
